Reviews: Shanghai Van Gogh Starry Night Museum + ERA2 Circus World - Time Travel Acrobatic Show [2 PM Show]
Guest User2025-12-15
The show was rescheduled, and the trip.com staff worked incredibly well. Thank you for your support and the rescheduling. The ERA2 circus show was very colorful, but it's a shame the hour flew by, a bit short. Afterward, we went looking for the Van Gogh Museum. We had a hard time finding it and trying to get in—the employee didn't want to let us in, and we didn't have internet to show him our trip.com confirmation, as he requested. After 20 minutes of negotiating, he gave us the Wi-Fi password and saw the confirmation. The museum was interesting, and you can take lots of great photos in its locations.★

Reviews: Songhu Campaign Memorial Hall + Sihang Warehouse Battle Memorial professional tour guide service available in Chinese/English
Guest User2025-07-14
The tour guides were dedicated and serious in their work, the time was arranged reasonably, and the explanations were relatively comprehensive. The visit to the Sihang Warehouse and the Memorial Hall was very educational. We should remember history and never forget the national humiliation. Heroes will live forever, and we should strive to become stronger!★

Reviews: Shanghai Day Tour to Zhujiajiao Water Town and City Attractions(Private Car & Ticket)
Guest User2025-06-26
The driver and guide Joe is a really wonderful person. We were a group of 5 people and he helped us a lot. One of us is a person in a wheelchair, so he helped even with it coz he had to move in such a wheelchair for half a year.
